Hooks & Bullets

Sounds like a great time, but how come I wasn't invited to Mr. Crapo's event???

Heck, this sounds even better

For instance, no one would have any legal cause to question the day in May that Cunningham and 20 or so other lawmakers spent shooting trap and skeet in suburban Maryland. The lobbyist-filled event was free for the legislators and was paid for by the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation, a $1.5 million-a-year organization funded by $25,000 contributions from, among others, a gun manufacturer, a sporting-goods association, a defense contractor, a tobacco producer, a cable company, an electric utility and a forest products giant.

Of course I didn't get invited to that one either - even though I know senior people at the electic utility, forest products giant, and defense contractor.

Hmmm, someone's gonna get a phone call.
